Description
COLDFLEX 500
| Feature Category | Detail |
| Product Type | Rechargeable Hydraulic Crimping Pliers (or similar Hydraulic Tool) |
| Item Code | COLDFLEX 500 |
| Hose Compatibility | Primarily designed for the 5 mm Cold-Flex Capillary Hose line. |
| Crimping Mechanism | Hydraulic (often battery-powered/rechargeable, sometimes manual hydraulic), providing consistent, high force. |
| Function | To create a permanent, leak-tight, and high-pressure seal between the hose and fitting (e.g., 1/4″ or 3/8″ flare fittings). |
| Integration | Often sold as a kit that includes specific crimping dies for the 5 mm Cold-Flex hose and fittings. |
| Reliability Feature | Ensures tool longevity and consistent crimp quality, which is critical for meeting the hose’s 400 bar burst pressure rating. |
- Crimping Force: As a professional hydraulic tool, it is designed to exert significant force, often measured in tons (e.g., typical hydraulic crimpers operate between 6 and 12 tons) to achieve the required compression on the metal sleeves.
- Pressure Assurance: The correct use of the 500 is necessary for the resulting hose assembly (hose + fitting) to withstand the required Working Pressure of 50 bar and the safety Burst Pressure of 400 bar (for the 5 mm hose).
- Ease of Use: Being hydraulic, it reduces the physical effort required compared to manual tools, improving consistency and speed for professional installers.
